I think Case and his agent had justification for that contract and maybe more based only on what the talking heads were saying.

I don’t think your figure of average team to .500 with a tailored system is out of the question… except that a particular system is not necessarily manned with the proper personnel to execute that system.

Denver was not really very good at maintaining or even forming a pocket at times. I remember Kenny Stabler at the Oilers, Don Meredith at Dallas, Tarkington at Minnesota, etc.

Don’t take my statements as adamant, I am learning here and just ‘splainin’ my thoughts.

Given Case’s situation I think I would feel “forced” to go for the money. Regardless, the QB doesn’t seem to dictate the offense in most situations, imho. I could be wrong, not really so much a fan of nfl,

KC changed their offense from the one that favored Smith to the one that fit Mahomes because they have a coach that knows how to adapt to his weapons.

It’s hard to come down on Elway as the bad guy since he is responsible for Case’s Big Pay Day. Elway can spin it any way he wants, he paid for the privilege of obtaining the rights to Case and if he has determined the Broncos need to go in a new direction then so be it. Most of us believe that Case has the ability to be not only a starter in the NFL but a highly regarded starter at that. Unfortunately, he has only had one season where he has been surrounded by decent team mates.
It isn’t fair and doesn’t showcase his abilities but Case got paid. That’s more than most can say. Go Case!

Looks like Case to the Redskins is HAPPENING and that there were a half dozen teams interested in trading for him. The other QB they have is Colt McCoy. The two are set to compete for the job, but I’d assume that Case will be No. 1 because they’ve already seen what Colt can do. Moreover, says Keenum was their No. 1 target at QB.

Also great to hear the Washington news.
A definite storied franchise and a huge fan base in the mid-Atlantic states.

It would be wild if Case leads them to their first NFCG appearance since the Cold War ended. That was that same NFL season as Ian Howfield and same postseason that Elway drove down the field against our Oilers.

As a life long Houstonian–Suburbs it all counts and who despised any Dallas team growing up, still do, can’t wait to see the UH Alums who are Cowboys fans reaction. My team was Oilers of course but my 2nd fav team was Redskins for many years, going back to Jurgensen, Kilmer, Charlie Taylor, then Riggins etc… I’m not the huge Keenum fan as NFL QB as many here are so if he indeed does go to D.C. be interesting to see where the allegiance is with the big Case fans here who are also Cowpoke fans.

They’d have to extend his years and give him a bonus if they want to reduce his salary. They can’t just take away money from him as he has to make at least the same amount under a new contract, even if it’s spread out.

The Denver Broncos and Washington Redskins have agreed to terms on a trade that sends quarterback Case Keenum to D.C., NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports, citing sources.After the Broncos reached an agreement with the Baltimore Ravens to trade for...

Wow when i was the service i would go round and round with those redskin fans in southern Maryland about the oilers and coogs as Ware won the heisman. Now I’m a dang Redskin fan. They are great fans and its a great sportstown. The horseracing was especially good.
